: Hi:
: I'm 32 weeks pregnant with my first and just had an ultrasound done. When I look at the profile pictures taken of my baby, the nose seems very large and slopes out a lot. Also, the mouth is totally flat....when I look at other ultrasound pictures on the Internet you can usually see where the mouth/lips pucker out. Has anybody else ultrasound pictures like these....how accurate are these in showing the size of facial features. Would the ultrasound report had said something if the nose was abnormally large?? Please let me know if I should be concerned.
It all depends on shadows and position of the baby at the time. On the internet they only put the great pictures on but believe me I have alot of mine wich look really weird, If you have any questions ask your doctor about them. Im sure if he was worried he would send you for another one.
